Study of Seasonal Rainfall Infiltration Via Time-Lapse Surface Electrical Resistivity Tomography: Case Study of Gamboa Area, Panama Canal Watershed
(2013-12-18)
The present investigation was focused on the variations in rainwater infiltration experienced by soils of Gamboa zone (Panama Canal Watershed) during various seasons of the year, employing a time-lapse analysis of electrical ...
Composition, Diversity, and Tree Structure of a Tropical Moist Forest in Gamboa, Colon, Panama
(2016-03-22)
This study focuses on the floristic diversity of the forest trees found at Cerro Pelado Tropical Hydrology Observatory in Gamboa, Colon, Panama. Field work for the quantitative inventory was carried out in November 2012. ...
Estudio teórico de capacidad de deformación de soportes esbeltos de hormigón armado con fibras de acero sometidos a esfuerzos combinados de axil y carga lateral
(2012-10)
El estudio de la ductilidad es muy importante en elementos estructurales sometidos a esfuerzos combinados, ya que nos determina la capacidad de resistencia y a la deformación. Actualmente son escasos los ensayos experimentales ...
Household stored water quality in an intermittent water supply network in Panama
(Journal of Water, Sanitation and Hygiene for Development washdev2020156Journal of Water, Sanitation and Hygiene for Development washdev2020156, 2020-04-08)
Safe water storage is critical to preserve water quality, especially when intermittent piped drinking water supply creates a need for household storage. This study characterized household storage practices and stored water ...

Behaviour of steel-fibre-reinforced normal-strength concrete slender columns under cyclic loading
(2012-03-28)
The inclusion of ductility requirements is necessary to guarantee a safety design of concrete structures subjected to unexpected and/or reversal loads. It is important to outline that plastic hinges may develop in columns ...
Analytical Investigation of the Structural Fuse Concept
(2006-06-28)
Passive energy devices (PED) are useful to enhance structural performance by reducing seismically induced structural damage. Metallic dampers are one such PED. When they are designed such that all damage is concentrated ...
Connectivity between coastal lagoons and sea: Asymmetrical effects on assemblages' and populations' structure
(2018-03-02)
Connectivity among marine populations plays a fundamental role in the dynamic of metapopulations and communities. Moreover, genetic connectivity is important for the evolutionary history and adaptive capability of species ...
Assessing resilience to climate change in the US cities
(2012-03-09)
In the face of uncertainties associated with climate change, building adaptive capacity and resilience at the community level emerges as an essential and timely element of local planning. However, key social factors that ...
Comportamiento de soportes esbeltos de hormigón armado con fibras de acero sometidos a esfuerzos combinados de axil y carga lateral cíclica
(2012-10)
La ductilidad es un indicador de la capacidad de deformación en estructuras sometidas a esfuerzos combinados de axil y carga lateral cíclica. El elemento estructural sometido a estos esfuerzos debe ser capaz de absorber y ...
